XChat - это отличный IRC клиент для системы X Window, использующий набор инструментов GTK2+. Прекрасный дизайн интерфейса, удобные функции и легкие настройки являются отличительной особенностью этого приложения для общения. Поддерживает многосерверные подключения, настройку пользовательского интерфейса, скрипты (на TCL, Perl или Python) и плагины.

XChat is an IRC chat program for both Linux and Windows. It allows you to join multiple IRC channels (chat rooms) at the same time, talk publicly, private one-on-one conversations etc. It has a choice of a tabbed or tree interface, support for multiple servers, and a high level of configurability. Both command line and graphical versions are available, although use of the graphical version far outweighs use of the command line version. Even file transfers are possible.

X-Chat is a full-featured IRC client and includes all basic functionalities that are found in most other IRC clients, including CTCP, DCC file transfers and chats, and a plugin system for various languages (including at least C or C++, Perl, Python, Tcl, Ruby, Lua, CLISP, D, and DMDScript). By writing plugins, one can extend the features and customize the functionality of X-Chat.

X-Chat has two good features of usability: colored nicknames and alignment by text as opposed to alignment by nicks. When you read text, it's enough for eyes to notice the colors of nicknames, which they can do when they are focused to somewhere else near, and you may know at once who is writing. Colors are inobtrusive and there just 6 of them—not to burden your short-term memory. And eyes don't have to search for ends of nicknames, they can start reading text at once when text is aligned by the beginning.

This X-Chat for Windows version features:
* 41 language translations;
* encrypted connections using OpenSSL 0.9.8e;
* native IPv6 support on Windows with IPv6 stack;
* Perl, Ruby and Tcl language interface plugins for scripting;
* Winamp, DNS and EXEC binary plugins;
* various themes with graphical theme and font utility.

X-Chat runs on at least the following operating systems: GNU-Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, AIX, IRIX, Mac OS X, Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP and others.

Changes in XChat 2.8.7c (14/Jun/2008):
* Worked around Internet Explorer not escaping URLs passed on the command line.
* Fixed a rare crash bug.
